Kutná Hora: Mint Master of Medieval Europe
Price from: €1,050.00
Just an hour’s drive from Prague, this Kutná Hora day tour introduces you to a charming medieval town listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, filled with picturesque monuments and sites that transport you back in time. From the 13th century onward, the mines in Kutná Hora contributed one-third of Europe’s silver production and drove the economic dominance of the Kingdom of Bohemia. The silver “Prague groschen” was hard currency throughout Central Europe for several centuries. Kutná Hora’s wealth naturally inspired the town to express its importance by commissioning soaring medieval cathedrals, elegant town squares, and townhouses that we can still enjoy today. Accompanied by your historian guide, you’ll also visit nearby Sedlec to experience the eerie and fantastical Baroque Bone Chapel, or ossuary, decorated with the skeletons of 60,000 victims of the plague and the Hussite Wars.
